Answer Is in Your Hand

Switzerland.

CERN headquarters.

Witten was inside a coffee shop. He was sitting on a sofa with his legs crossed. He read through the thesis in his hand while drinking a cup of black coffee.

Sitting next to him was Jaffe.

The old man rested his hands on the table as he quietly waited for Witten to finish reading the thesis.

As the founder and the director of the Clay Institute, the inclusion of the Yang-Mills equations as one of the Millennium Prize Problems was decided by these two, and they were the ones who actually phrased the problem.

This problem was set to be the final physics problem of the Millennium Problems, and Jaffe thought that no one in this century would be able to solve this. He didn't expect this day to come so suddenly…

After a while, Witten finally flipped through the last page of the thesis.

Jaffe noticed this, so he asked, "You finished?"

"Almost."

"I want to know what you think."
